Quoting Daz Hoo
ROFLOL! I never thought that idea would be used by someone else! But you took this to a whole new level there. Great job! Now, I might have to come up with other 2-ROW designs myself!

Yeah, the 2-ROW concept occurs in a few Classic Space sets: 6970 Beta-1 Command Base, 6861 X1 Patrol Craft, and arguably in 1593 Super Model (which wasn't all that super IMHO), or even 6871 Star Patrol Launcher (a mini version of the concept). So to me, it's an archetype to be explored. Thanks for the kind comment.
